refrigerated biscuit dough or pizza dough
unsalted butter (melted)

directions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef and chopped onion until beef is browned and cooked through. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Let cool slightly.

Flatten each biscuit dough round and add a spoonful of beef mixture and a cube or pinch of cheese in the center. Add pickles or bacon if using.

Fold the dough around the filling, pinching to seal and forming a ball.

Place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

In a small bowl, mix melted butter, minced garlic, and parmesan cheese.

Brush each bomb generously with the garlic parmesan butter.

Bake for 15–18 minutes, or until golden brown and puffed.

Brush with extra garlic butter and garnish with parsley before serving.
